Overdue (Revised)

Note: I sure am glad that my date 'post-phoned' , freeing up my evening to re-write crap that almost no one reads anyway.
Sincerely, I'd like to thank tif for the gentle, yet motivating comment. I think it's the only example of 'constructive criticism ' i've ever seen. So I revised this post.
I was reading this post
by tif dated 7/15 about a music festival and it made me feel sentimental. Those Rock Against Racism/Reagan smoke-ins were awesome!
Then it made me paranoid. Look at all those people. A bunch of hippie, punk , pagan,vegetarian, tree-huggin' commie pinkos, queers, liberal libertarians anarchists, reality- based journalists, two-faced narcs, idiots and other normal folks .
My sources indicate that a significant number of attendees may have been under the influence of one or more Controlled Substances.
I'm surprised the guys from the Alphabet Agencies haven't already snagged some ELF/PETA/NORML type, shot him/her full of drugs , strapped explosives around them , stuffed their pockets with Agency-generated 'anti-American' propaganda, i.e, "If you love animals more than you love God and Country", bomb this Research facility", and given them a free ticket to the show. They'd cover the victim with Hilary '08 buttons fashioned from depleted Uranium.
Push a button.
Big Bang.
Show over.

What a propaganda coup for the far-right! The press would go wahoo apeshit with stories about
the " Liberal, anti-war, pro-Hilary, pro- drugs Eco-Terrorist." For example:

'Dirty' Eco-Bomber Found To Have Links To Clinton, Drug Trade

Washington D.C- Investigators from the newly-formed Bureau of Obfuscation today disclosed some startling findings based on the evidence found at the Nevada desert scene of last week's 'Dirty Hippie Bombing', which killed over 700,000,000,000,000,001 attendees and Zygote-Americans during the Anti- Gitmopalooza Testing Ground Music Festival . Experts were able to identify the bomber as notorious comic-book character Phineas P. Phreak, after finding Mr. Phreak's intact wallet and numerous other incriminating items at the bottom of the approximately 100 yard diameter crater that was otherwise filled with charred and unidentifiable irradiated rubble and remains.

BoO spokesperson Ed Anger had this to say, " We have found conclusive evidence linking Mr. Phreak to both Sen. Clinton and numerous other liberal activist groups, which may or may not include PETA, NORML ,NOW and the NEA. Both NEA's. The Education one and the Homosexual-Agenda Art welfare one.

At this moment we we cannot comment further; save to say that the thousands of witnesses , um, er ,(pause), survivors... uh, are receiving the best care our medical staff can provide, but we cannot disclose the location of the Treatment Center due to security concerns. Remember, it's in the interest of Freedom that we bring thousands of maimed civilians and corpses to bombed -out and unequipped clinics in Iraq and deny working Americans afforable gasoline and healthcare."

The "liberal" press ignores the fact that Abortion Clinic Bombers and Doctor Shooters have been advocating this sort of thing for years- Eric Rudolph is a hero to extremists, for example. I'm not a Christian , nor am I a theologian, but I'm 100% certain that Jesus would be steadfast in his oppositon to assassination, war, murder and the global exploitation of the poor.

Heal the sick, teach the children, feed the hungry, protest at the 'temple' of the money-lenders (ow!) , call-out the street -corner hypocrites and refuse to back away from petty tyranny and the Roman Empire. Jesus was a liberal socialist who died for the same reason he'd die today. Ideas.

Tyranny and fear.

Jesus was a great philosopher- I wish that so-called Christians could live up to his expectations -such as -people shouldn't hurt each other. Simple, eh? No.

Forgiveness?

We all carry grudges.

Forever. Scars, punishment, lessons and rewards. Good and bad.

I don't need a God to tell me that.

Sadly, religious fundamentalism has always produced nothing but war, death, suffering and assorted conflicts based on ignorance and dogmatism.

I don't need a religion to dictate my behavior.

Turn the other cheek. Eye for Eye. Pound O' flesh. Kill the infidels.

Same old Witch trials , Neo-Torquemada and the new Inquistion/ Intolerance. Kill the other infidels before they kill you.

Jesus would not approve.
